Hemos tenido mucha suerte de dar con este centro de buceo, el instructor Marcos y el guía Hernan MA-RA-VI-LLO-SOS, de verdad, muy buena gente. Llevé a mi pareja para que hiciera el open water y yo un refresh, y nos encantó hacerlo con ellos. Miran mucho por la seguridad y la buena asimilación de los conceptos. Muy contenta la verdad.

Viviana is the best scuba diving guide ever!

She communicates and explains everything super clearly which really put me to ease and made me feel comfortable as it was my first time. She is also very composed and extremely friendly.
